Your homes will fall down. The birds will stop singing. The bees will sting you.
This guy is hysterical.

He's speaking live on CNN, telling his countrymen how horrific things will get if they don't stop it.

I'm sure he was hoping it sounded really dire, but it was funny after a point.

| 11. And it is all the fault of "Libyans in the US with health insurance |
|
and who have kids in college in the US and Europe"--THEY are the ones causing all these problems in Libya.
Really now?
Surprised he didn't show clips of the crowds in WI and blame it on them.

Remember, Mubarak gave his televised speech and we didn't find out til the next day that it was not really live and he had already fled to where ever it is he went to.

And his statements were so divorced from reality that it's hard to believe he was speaking live. He sounded like Baghdad Bob all over again.

Yes, they're all going down--whether they know it or not. To me, this guy sounds just like Baghdad Bob. Head in the sand, denying reality.
OT, I've got a song for you. I'll post it when we run into each other again in the threads, or maybe I'll PM you. It's an oldie, from "Hair."

| 30. Your soufflés will all collapse and you will lose the ability to taste pepper |
|
but not everyone will, so dishes prepared by you will taste awful to others and the social awkwardness of your failed dinner parties will be tough to live down. Also your sex life will suffer.

| 37. Or cable news talking heads who won't cover Wisconsin |
|
Because there was more coverage on CNN of a yo-yo competition and the Royal wedding invitations being mailed out than there was of WI.
The one snippit they DID show was over before I could turn the TV volume back up.
